Working memory training systems are designed to improve the user's working memory. However, current systems are frequently considered tedious deeply affecting the user's motivation and consequently the potential for training derived improvements. Free Your Brain is a brain training game combining insights from cognitive neuropsychological theories and flow theories. In this work we describe the game and its design process specifically establishing the link between the supporting theoretical background research and the developed solution.
